Short summary
This paper explores the projected changes on wind, relative humidity and solar radiation in future scenarios for the Basque Country. This work is part of the UrbanKlima2050 initiative and aims to provide a more comprehensive characterization of future climate change impacts in the region, and thus, improve the resiliency of the territory. The main results show a decrease in both wind and relative humidity by the end of this century, while solar radiation tends to increase.
